I've just started Starseed Pilgrim, and there is one thing I don't understand.

If a plant touches a black box, the plant starts to get contaminated, one cell at a time. If the character touches a black box or a contaminated cell of a plant, the character falls in another dimension where black boxes are keys, cells of plants are empty spaces, and empty space is solid rock.

I have tried collecting as many keys as possible. But every time, I have to hold "H" to make the character die because he is stuck in the other dimension, so no progress in collecting keys.

What do they open?

Can I skip collecting them without worrying about that they might be useful later?

It's not the black box that is the key, but the star. Connect the structure to black to make that area traversible in the other dimension. Hint: You'll want to grab the key(s) and bring it/them somewhere...
